Project Management & Result Based Monitoring and Evaluation of Development Projects
Project management has become an organizational –wide core competency, nearly every project
implementation staff/Team (PIT) regardless of discipline is involved in managing one or more projects.
This training is designed to provide project staffs with knowledge and skills that cut across all types of
projects.
The key to a successful project is in the planning and management: being clear on the objectives,
deciding how to work together as a team, thinking through how to approach the scope, setting up a
schedule and budget, understanding clearly what will make the deliverable acceptable to the client of the
project. The easiest way to plan a project is to have those who will execute the work help with the
planning. This has the added benefit that the team is ready to hit the ground running during execution.
This training involves you in a project leadership model that you can take back to your workplace and
apply immediately. The course addresses all phases of a project: initiating, planning, executing,
controlling, and closing.
